<p>I absolutely love the 130-140 gram Blizard discs. I have a TeeDevil, a Katana and a Destroyer all of fly farther than anything else I've ever thrown. They fly best for me when released on a hefty hyzer andgle - they flip up and fly fairly straight and seem to glide forever.</p>

Just wanted to throw out a follow up. That 136 destroyer has become my go to distance rhbh disc. I throw it in All kinds of wind and it does great. Severe wind I go with the obvious max weight over stable discs. I have slammed my poor destroyer into several trees at close range and it still flies true to its ratting. So overall 100% happy with my 136 blizzard destroyer.

1st Blizzard plastic purchase today. Bought a 136 destroyer and I am in love with it so far. I have an average backhand of about 300 with a 169 star destroyer. Guessing the blizzard is adding about 50ish. Do not recommend for power forehand shots , my new 175 pro destroyer fills that spot though.

<p>I use many different weight types. What I have done is change the way I throw. I choose disc that feel good in my hand. They tend to be heavier ones, for me. Ask, some buddies if you can try thier disc, before you buy one. But, since I made my adjustment to throwing, I have better games. </p>

<p>I love blizzard plastic. I throw it regularly with consistant results. I mainly throw blizzard boss's in the 150-160 gram range. They DO go farther, They stay on the air easier, and glide much farther. Before they came out I was throwing 450 with a few instances of going above. Now 500 is about my max with times of going above, and I didnt do anything different except throw blizzard. I still throw heavier discs to. 06 augusta wraiths go so far. and of course the Z force. But blizzard…</p>

But blizzard is some great stuff. Boss's tend to be stable all the way down to around 138. Ape's are only stable down to around 145 I think, ive thrown a 138 and it just flips right over without trying, but Ive thrown scaled 138 bosses and had them hyzer flip beautifully whereas the same weight ape would turn into a roller when thrown the same way. Havent tried any other blizzard discs yet. Ive heard destroyers in blizzard plastic are super stable all the way to 138 as well. But if you want the most distance by far I would go with blizzard. it goes farther.

<p>For myself , lighter plastic does not fly as far into a headwind. I think it's better into a tailwind.</p>
